My favorite part:

Federal District Court Judge Susan Webber Wright, the presiding judge in the Paula Jones case, issued a civil contempt citation to President Clinton for his misrepresentations under oath.

The citation, issued in April 1999, states in part: "It is not acceptable to employ deceptions and falsehoods in an attempt to obstruct the judicial process."

The citation also mentions an even higher standard expected of President Clinton because of his position. The president's "conduct in this case, coming as it did from a member of the bar and the chief law enforcement officer of this Nation, was without justification and undermined the integrity of the judicial system," said Judge Wright.

President Clinton's attorneys did not appeal the civil contempt citation issued by Wright.

"This is not a complicated case," Glavin told WorldNetDaily. "There are no issues of fact in question. A federal judge has already ruled on the issues of fact. A, the president lied, and B, the president obstructed justice, and he was cited for contempt and fined. So there is no question regarding fact. This is not a complicated case that should take a long time. It shouldn't take the six months that a complicated case would," he said in a phone interview.
